<div class="">Hi All,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Our team at Hip-Hop Virtual Machine (<a href="http://hhvm.com/" class="">http://hhvm.com</a>) have been experimenting with using LLVM as a code generator for x86-64. We have been successfully running it for quite some time as a secondary back
end. We had to modify our version of LLVM and our mods were based on 3.5 release. At this point we feel our requirements have become stable enough to start upstreaming our diffs.</div>

Great to read that you will upstream stuff!</div>

<div class="">The set of patches will be loosely based on the above, as some of our interfaces have changed since we’ve merged with the trunk.</div>

The patch is huge, I expect many small patches won’t be too much controversial, but it would be nice to have some RFC-like document to discuss some high-level design details. </div>

<div>That makes sense. I would think features like “location records” to be useful outside of our project, and agree that it’ll require an RFC.</div>
